As you know, Neil Young and Crazy Horse aren't really switching up the setlists on this tour. In fact, though some cities get a different song in the encore, the setlist at Barclays Center in Brooklyn last night was exactly the same as the one they played at MSG. Regardless, it was a great Brooklyn show, especially for those who were seeing it for the first time. If you missed both area shows, you can still always head to Atlantic City this week.

Patti Smith and band (Lenny Kaye included) however did mix it up during her powerful 8pm opening set. She ended with "Gloria" like she did at MSG, but we also got her moving cover of Neil Young's "It's a Dream" and hit "Because the Night."

Opening theatricals were terrible. Singer Without a Song is a bad song and a waste of time. Encore should include 1 or 2 more songs (Cortez and RITFW would have been perfect) for the price. Other than that, it sounded good and I had a fun time.

Boring songs that go on and on. I am fan of jamming concerts (Allmans, Dead), but jeez, when the basic riffs dont catch your ear dont repeat them over and over and over until the audience is numb! some of the best jam songs of all time are some of Neil's songs: Cowgirl, down by the river, Like a hurricane, yet he chooses to jam around unknown uncatchy drones of songs. The distortion/feedback portion was actually a welcome change from the boring songs. Instead of jamming around classics like Cinnamon girl and Powderfinger he jams around songs that basicially are poor to begin with taking them nowhere and prolonging the agony of hopelessly wishing for a familiar song.

Not only the same setlist as MSG but also the same clothes. I thought Poncho wore the Hendrix shirt at the Garden cause the show was on Jimi's Birthday.

Also, do people realize or even care how bad their YouTube stuff is? Those videos up top are just plain awful. Either too far back to even care what's on it or too close and the sound is way over modulated and sounds like crap.

Through the majority of the concert we could not see Neil's head, or the 2 screens, never saw Molina and only rarely did we see Talbot and Sampedro. It was great to hear him but when you go to a concert you should be able to see the musicians! We wont be going to Barclays again!

4:54, yeah, on born in ontario there is the prerecorded organ part. weird, but i think neil used some prerecorded bits back in the day (solo trans tour). walk like a giant i'm not so sure about. somebody in neil's crew could be whistling as far as we know. but i will assure you one think...neil does NOT pipe in solos. i was 3rd row earlier in the tour and every mind bending, face melting note came directly off his fretboard.

having also been up-front, i paid particular attention to some of the use of tracks....the whistling on Walk Like a Giant was totally a pre-recorded track...they might've been whistling (or pretending to), but they definitely missed one of the last cue's toward the end of the song when there was no one near a mic and the whistles were still coming loud and clear through the speakers....

that's what made me wonder what else they were miming...Britney Spears used to tour having recorded vocals in her dressing room before each show, and the engineers would mix that in to the live show in case she ever went off key, who's to say they wouldn't do the same for a guitar solo?

Someone very kindly gave me a free nosebleed seat ticket around 9:30, so I missed the first three songs, but I thought it was a great show. I live in the neighb, so if I didn't get in, it wasn't a big deal. Many people left early though. Hey, Hey, My, My was pretty killer. Cortez or Hurricane would have been great, but oh well.

i don't know what the fuck britney fucking spears does, nor do i care. i can tell you one thing with absolute certainty though...NEIL YOUNG DOES NOT PIPE IN GUITAR SOLOS. there is no fucking way. period. whistling? yeah, maybe. whistling live is hard. like i said before, it could even be roadies backstage helping out. neil's had his guitar tech play banjo, piano, and tambourine before. he's had his photographer pitch in on keys before. but there is no way in hell that he has prerecorded solos. that's just fucking stupid.

echoing lots of other people. was gonna try to maybe grab some cheap scalped tickets last minute in hopes the encore would be cortez or like a hurricane, so glad I didn't waste my time. I'm sure neil sounded great though.

lol, piping in whistles on wlag. ahhh no, there's also ralph in the back whistling away. so please. and solos! neil's way to spontaneous for that, even with his effects he hardly pays mind to where he will put his foot. heads up front saw this in full force. the organ deal was weird tho. i thought it was a Jack Nitzsche tribute or something. another great show from a legend.

If you think walk like a giant and ramada inn are the 2012 versions of down by the river and cowgirl you are deaf dumb and blind!
Was anyone awake at this Barclays show? It blew! The garbage blowing on with deranged feedback and distortion was more interesting than terrible songs like singer without a song and walk like a whatever! And Ontario Is the worst song ever...

What's with the national anthem with giant u.s. flag unfurled before the set? Is this goddamn yankee stadium? Went to both MSG and Barclay and Neil did it both times. I refused to stand for that shit...and I'm a Marine Viet vet....I don't need cheap bullshit patriotism...and he's a damn Canadian to boot.....
